ZX Spectrum Vega Retro Games Console Goes On Sale August 24

The iconic video games console the Sinclair ZX Spectrum is making its triumphant comeback this month with the new and improved ZX Spectrum Vega launching this month on 24th August.

Developed by Sir Clive Sinclair, the 80's classic was re-launched via an Indiegogo campaign that raised over £150k. Off the back of this success SMS Electronics have agreed to build the new console at its Nottinghamshire factory.

While the original Spectrum featured a stand-alone console, technology has come quite a way so the entire processing power of the Spectrum now fits inside a new controller which was incidentally designed by the console's original creator Chris Smith.
